Pet care experience

Experienced, calm, and trusted care

I’m a Rover Star Sitter with 7 years of experience caring for animals with patience, intuition, and a calm, steady presence. Pet care has been my full-time work, and something I take seriously every single day. I focus on creating a safe, predictable environment where animals feel comfortable, understood, and cared for like family. My Experience Over the years I’ve cared for: Senior cats and dogs Deaf dogs Dogs who wear diapers Pets requiring oral, topical, and injectable medications (including insulin) Cats needing subcutaneous fluids Animals recovering from surgery Nervous, anxious, or reactive pets Pets needing slow introductions and gentle handling I’m certified in Pet CPR and First Aid, and trained in Animal Reiki. While I’m not a trainer or behaviorist, I have strong observational skills and experience recognizing subtle stress signals and early changes in behavior. My Approach I believe in: Predictable routines Calm, attentive care Clear and consistent communication Respect for your home Treating every animal like my own My care style is steady, patient, and never rushed. The goal is always safety, comfort, and emotional well-being.

Kerry was great. We were on vacation with our dog Bella when Bella got really sick. We could not leave her in the house alone so we checked Rover and found Kerry.. It was such short notice that Kerry responded quickly and agreed to come and watch Bella while we went out for a few hours. Bella seemed to like Carrie and Carrie sent a really cute photo of Bella smiling.. I felt comfortable with Carrie taken care of Bella while she was sick so I can go out for a few hours. Thanks, Kerry.

Kerry did a great job keeping us informed about our three elderly cats. Insulin and pills were not a problem for her to give. She stayed awhile to comfort our very oldest cat who loves attention. We will certainly call on her again the next time we travel. Thank you, Kerry!

I need to know about medical needs, medications, behavior quirks, routines, fears, leash habits, house training, dietary restrictions, and how your pet handles being alone so I can provide thoughtful care.
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
